woo hooo

Ok so this week was crazy! It was finals week for out Critical Care class which has been like a whirl wind, but thank goodness it is over. The below pic is of me, ashley, and amber relaxing before we took our final. It was one of our longest school days we have had starting at 0900 and leaving class at 1730(530pm). From school we had to go straight to Red Cross for disaster training and finally got to head for home at about 2000 (8pm).

Then today I got the elusive Honda 80) those of you who know about all the troubles that the cross country trip had will understand (they are to lengthly to go into details now).
I was planing to get up and pretty-fie my self but I fell like i'm getting sick again so that didn't happen cause I slept in. Ben came up from his bro's house in Roy and we headed out to the airport. Things were so tight for beth and bud to catch their plane that beth talked me though the check in process for them and I put them on stand by while they were still in route.
Beth and bud were awesome to go through all they did to get the honda to me. I say thank you a million times for all they put up with and all the long driving days. This is apx 15 seconds after they pulled up to the drop off area. I think the whole exchange took about 2 min total.


I have the keys in hand and beth and bud are running into the airport to catch their flight.

After we left the airort ben still had three hours till he had to work so we were gonn park his car and bum around SLC for a bit. Well after some crazy happening we finally were able to grab some lunch and then he headed into work and I headed back to Ogden. I went by and washed off the gunk from the road and here it is safe and sound behind The Beast washed vacuumed. Thanks again mom and dad.

The Snow!

I don't have much time to post cause I have to run out the door to work for the night but below are some pics of Wed when the skys opened and we got 22-27" of snow. Most are from Ben's parents house and the ice one is on the way to work. Enjoy 80) I didn't. 80)

some christmas photos

Christmas day, after a long night of working (no sleep in between) I headed to the airport to meet up with my Grandma Harbour who flew in from sacto. We came into missoula and then headed out to Saundi's in-laws for their traditional christmas prime rib.





Later we did dinner at Derek and Beth's house with the addition of the two fore mentioned and auntie viccie.



Then after what seemed like forever for Derek, we opened presents














Even sue Saundi and Matt's dog got in on the action by hopping up on matts lap.

It was christmas

On christmas eve Ogden got hit with a huge snow storm and it turned the roads into an ice rink. It took me an hour to get to my hospital that usually takes me 10 min to get to. I had to stop on the side of the road and put on chains to the back tires of the burb (not fun and not pictured!) i had not planned to lay in the diry snow and suck in exhaust! 80) but at least I knew how to save myself.

Pictured is one of many cars that got stuck on the road.



What fun, later I'll post christmas photos.

WOOOO HOOO

I am so excited. Today was out last day of class until we have to go back for clinicals on Jan 5th. Even as I am typing this I am breathing a huge sigh of relief. I know all of us in class needed a break. I am so excited to get to see my family and fly with my grams into MT on christmas day. 80)

Another useless post

National chocolate covered anything day!

some pics

I put up some Christmas decorations, baked some lemon souffle and took a pic of the crummy day outside (Monday).








These were so great especially on a blah day, they were hot a steamy and so refreshing. I am definitely going to make them again.

Tonight

Tonight the Harbour family is on high alert as our beloved grandma harbour is going in tom. to have two units of blood transfused because her hemoglobin is about half of what it should be. I am sure most of ya'll who read my blog know through steph and her many connections but just asking for any extra prayers.

I am sure she will do wonderfully and steph will be with her tom night. 80)

Today is.......

I am a huge fan of a website Hungry Girl it reviews new low fat treats, offers healthy food swap options and low fat/low cal versions of food choices. Anyway...... every day on the HG website there is a "today is" and I am gonna try to make it a new addition to my blog. so

Today is National National Mousse Day!

You're To Kill a Mockingbird!

by Harper Lee

Perceived as a revolutionary and groundbreaking person, you have
changed the minds of many people. While questioning the authority around you, you've
also taken a significant amount of flack. But you've had the admirable guts to
persevere. There's a weird guy in the neighborhood using dubious means to protect you,
but you're pretty sure it's worth it in the end. In the end, it remains unclear to you
whether finches and mockingbirds get along in real life.

belated happy thanksgiving

Well Ben and I celebrated thanksgiving on Sunday because his fam went out of town and we both had to work Thurs, Fri and he worked sat. Anyway..... I cooked a meal and it was great! I cooked a 13lb turkey (sage parm garlic rubbed), mashed potatoes, and an apple pie. I was so excited my apple pie turned out awesome (the last pie I made was not so great). We also had pomegranate with marshmallow cream, corn, green beans, rolls of course martinele's (sp?)




I was able to bake so many wonderful things thanks to my new KitchenAid mixer! It is my Christmas present.






This a.m. I made some of my mom's bran muffins cause I had been missing them. 80)

The crunch has begun

Well like I said, the crunch has begun for NCLEX! ... again. With 12 weeks to graduation I have two NCLEX books to complete in order to do this I have 50 questions a day out of one book and 6 chapters a week out of the other. This on top of my regular assigned work. I am kinda scared because I feel that there is still so much I don't know. Hopefully I will feel better prepared in about 12 weeks. 80) love ya'll

ER Nurses Rap!

I posted this on our nursing school website. I love it. 80)

it's cookin time again

I love the fall for many reasons, one of them is that I can cook in my apartment without it reaching 110 degrees. A few days ago I cooked an Eggplant Parm dish



Tonight as Steph drove down from MSO I made some pumpkin cookies and instead of putting chocolate chips in them... I hand dipped them. 80)

my color

you are violet #EE82EE

Your dominant hues are red and blue. You're confident and like showing people new ideas. You play well with others and can be very influential if you want to be. Your saturation level is lower than average - You don't stress out over things and don't understand people who do. Finishing projects may sometimes be a challenge, but you schedule time as you see fit and the important things all happen in the end, even if not everyone sees your grand master plan. Your outlook on life is bright. You see good things in situations where others may not be able to, and it frustrates you to see them get down on everything.
